    Summary

    "Lullabies do not make kinslayers. This he knows. And yet, it never stops the worry from curdling in his chest, the only constant of all the cradles he has sung beside. For the tune endures after all, and nothing empty can truly endure: every vacant hroä holds a fragment of the fëa that once forsook it. Can a song be washed of meaning? Is tenderness immune to ideology? Groping about blindly in the dark of their dreams, Elrond had always worried that he was not watering the crops for his children to harvest, but salting the earth before the seeds could be planted."
    ___________________________
    At a parade celebrating the the founding of Imladris, Elrond spots an unforgettable face in the crowd, a face he’s not seen for millennia. To his delight and apprehension, it is indeed Maglor Fëanorian, who brings with him two things. First, a suspiciously tame monkey he insists isn’t a metaphor. Second, the groundshaking admission that Elwing and Eärendil’s sons were not named Elrond and Elros.

    Or, a love letter to Maglor, Elwing, and Elrond.

    Summary

    “The Maedhros who stands before his son is not one thing but many. He is a struck-down statue. He is a fading demon. He is a sword in a nuclear war. He is historical debris. He is the sum of a nation’s ruin. He is the first sunset of the Empire’s apocalypse. He is Elrond’s beloved Baba, who would find him under every starless sky. Archives will dissect him. Historians will redeem him. Writers will swallow him whole.”

    In 1937, notorious Indian revolutionaries Maedhros Fëanorian and his brother Maglor, take in a British colonial officer's twin sons and raise them to adulthood. Decades later, Elrond Peredhel, trying to leave a family tragedy behind in England, returns to India during a time of political turbulence and finds that everything, from the national landscape to his firebrand father, the ineffable Comrade Maedhros, has changed. Chapter 19: Epilogue, Afterword and 'Alternate' Ending.

    the firebender’s guide to living life after destiny by

    Tags
    Summary

    Sokka looked around the throne room with interest. “I always wondered what the world was like from up here - must be nice looking out at your adoring subjects.”

    “Being the Fire Lord is pretty dull,” Zuko said glumly, "unless you enjoy hearing people bicker about taxes. After a while, thwarting the occasional assassination is basically a form of stress relief."

    In which Fire Lord Zuko and Ambassador Sokka get drunk, go fishing, watch theatre, uncover a conspiracy, visit a teahouse, destroy a historical monument, and reckon with the painful legacy of the past – but not necessarily in that order. [PODFIC AVAILABLE]

    A Study in España’s Favoritism towards Italia del Sur by

    Fandoms: Hetalia: Axis Powers  

    31 Jan 2020

    Tags
    Summary

    🍅Synopsis: It was no secrecy that out of all the nations and ex-colonies that were ever parts or allies of the Spanish Empire, South Italy was Spain’s favorite. The red tomato of his eyes, if you will. Favoritism wasn’t a new concept that bore any new mystery or unknown, one can easily find the evidence of such phenomenon in any household and institution if one cares to look closely enough; after all, it means exactly what its namesake implies.

    What was not so readily obvious, however, were the effects and the far-reaching consequences on other individuals, human and fellow nations alike. Some felt his favoritism more keenly and terribly while others got away relatively unscathed. The goal of this study is to offer a deeper insight from the lens of five (5) different individuals who bore first-hand witness to the consequences of Spain’s absolute devotion to South Italy.

    It is with hope that as each unique perspective is shown, a piece of the puzzle will fall in place and bring about a better understanding to the question: What does it mean to be favored by the personification of the Spanish nation?

    🐢Note: Each chapter will also come with its own additional warnings, please do heed them. ¡Gracias!🐢

    The Head that Wears the Crown by for ADCurtis

    Fandoms: Avatar: The Last Airbender  

    09 Feb 2024

    Tags
    Summary

    In AD Curtis's AU fic, The Hand that Rocks the Cradle, Aang was captured by the Fire Nation and raised there. Azula orchestrates an engagement between herself and the airbender, even though Aang has fallen in love with his waterbending teacher, Katara. When Ozai tries to kill Aang, Azula stabs him in the back, and Aang escapes with Katara.

    In this sequel, Azula takes up her crown, despite her fractured mind. She plots against Katara, trying in vain to win Aang's love. Slowly, through many setbacks and humiliations, she begins to heal, and become the Fire Lord the world needs. Captain Raiden of the Royal Guard, a member of the White Lotus, supports Azula throughout this journey, as she learns what it means to let go.

    This is an Azula redemption story.
